    Default Spitting Spider series (#1)

    I was shooting this lone Spitting Spider (Scytodes sp.) when suddenly a pair of mating gnats(?) landed right in front of it. The spider proceeded to attack and eat the gnats.
    I kept firing bursts throughout, but since the light was bad, not all the shots in the sequence came out sharp. However, I did manage to get a few decent images which can give an idea of the sequence of events.
    This is the first image of the series. Will post more info along with the following images.

    Canon EOS 500D, Canon 100mm Macro USM
    Aperture-Priority AE
    Tv 1/80
    Av 6.3
    EC -2/3
    ISO 1600
    Flash Off
    Hand held.
    Regret that I accidentally clipped the legs

    Thanks, C&C welcome.
